IRA B. SANDERS, OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS.

STOVE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Sept. 3, 1907.

Application filed November '7, 1905- Serial No. 286,285.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, IRA B` SANDERS, a citizen oi the United States, residing at Fort Worth, in the county oi Tarrant and State of Texas, have invented a new and Improved Stove, of which the following is a speciiication.

This invention relates to stoves and more particularly to stoves provided with drums for increasing the amount of heat, and the object is to provide stoves with heating drums having means for increasing the circulation of the atmosphere therethrough and a plurality of radiating surfaces by which the amount ot heat furnished by the uel will be multiplied.

Other objects and advantages will be fully explained in the following description and the invention will be more particularly pointed out in the claims.

Reference is had to the accompanying drawings which form a part ot this application and specification.

The view shown in the drawings is a vertical section of the stove body and drums and the lire bowl and ash pan.

The stove has a body portion I, a pipe connection 2, and a door 3 oi ordinary construction which may be a sliding door. A drum 4 is attached to the top 5 oi the stove and hangs down within the stove. The drum 4 is open at the top and closed at the bottom except as hereinaiter explained. The drum 4 may be provided with a cap 6 which is removable and the stove may be used with or without this cap as may be desired. The cap may be a casting and must have numerous periorations to permit the circulation of air through the drum 4. The air is let in at the lower part oi drum 4 by means of a pipe connection 7 and damper or register 8. A central drum 9 is mounted in the drum 4 and the bottom of drum 4 is perforated so that heat may rise up in the drum 9. The drum 9 is provided with a damper or register I0 or opening or closing the top of the drum 9 as may be desired. A tire bowl ll is attached to the inside of the stove body. A grate I2 is mounted at the lowest part oi the fire bowl and provided with a handle I3 for agitating the grate. The stove is provided with an ash pan I4 which has periorations 15 near the outer end, thus adapting the ash pan tor a register or damper. The stove body and the drums 4 and 9 are preferably made oi. sheet metal. The stove and drums or airchambcrs 4 and 9 are also preferably cylindrical so that theadjacent surfaces will be concentric.

When a ire is made the register 15 is opened and the register I() is closed. In this condition heat will circulate about the drum 4 and the smoke will escape up the pipe I6. Heat will also go up in the drum 9 but it will be reHected back downwards. heat is obtained the register l5 may be closed and the register IO opened or partly opened. In this condition the draft ot air will not pass through the uel or iire and thus save the uel iroin undue combustion; The register 8 is generally open so that air will circulate within the drum 4 and about the drum 9 and rise upwards as it thus circulates. It too much heat is being produced the register 8 may be closed or partly closed. The amount oi heated air may be entirely regulated by the register 8. The adjacent suraces of the stove body I and the drum 4 radiate the heat back and iorth and the adjacent surfaces of drum 4 and drum 9 radiate the heat back and forth, consequently the heat will be multiplied, as the heat and air circulate about and within the drums. The register l5 may be closed or partly closed as may be desired.- The drum 4 occupies the central portion oi the stove body and thus forces the Haines from the fuel towards the cylindrical space just inside of the stove body and thus heat the outer Walls or wall of the stove quicker than in stoves of ordinary construction.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is,

1. A stove having an air chamber, a combustion chamber surrounding said air chamber, a drum in communication with said combustion chamber mounted in said air chamber, said drum und said chambers having the walls thereof concentric whereby each wall becomes a radiating surface, and independent means' for regulating the drafts l of each of said chambers and of said drum.

l 2. A stove having a fuel bowl, a combustion chamber in combination with said fuel bowl, an air chamber suspended in said combustion chamber and provided with means for regulating the draft o1 air therein, a heating drum "in communication with said combustion chamber mounted in said air chamber, a draft register for said fuel bowl, and a drat'tregister for said heating drum.

In tostimony-whereof,.1 set my hand in the presence of two witnesses, this 19th day of October, 1905.
